  2. Jesse Jackson has passed away. I still remember him being one of the most pro-life people in America (1970’s) writing for National Right To Life and saying that life begins at conception and that abortion was a tool of population control.

    Then came his presidential bids in middle and late 1980’s where he converted to being pro-choice.

  6. Tax Refunds this year, because of “THE GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL,” are substantially greater than ever before. In some cases, estimates are that over 20% will be returned to the Taxpayer. So, when you get your Tax Refund, think about what a wonderful President you have — NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR OUR GREAT SENIORS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, INTEREST DEDUCTIONS ON CAR LOANS, AND MUCH MORE. Don’t spend all of this money in one place!

  9. I don’t buy the Beccera poll, not b/c I don’t think Bianco and Hilton couldn’t be in the lead, but every other recent survey has shown Hillton fluctuating around 17%. Assuming that the GOP vote concentrates on the two better known names (no guarantee, but more likely this time with two reasonably known candidates vice a minor name with a bunch of some dudes getting the rest), Bianco and Hilton should total around 35-37%, with the smorgasboard of Dems garnering b/t 55-58%. With the redistricting prop out of the way, there isn’t a huge draw for every single TDS Karen and Daren to come out (though most will), and that helps the GOP.

  14. Son and I closed a deal for a 2025 VW Jetta SE this evening in Frederick MD at a VW dealership. About $1000 more than the “deal” from Hertz used car sales that fell through.

    Thank God this ordeal is over.

    We filled out all paperwork and will go back Thursday to pick it up and pay for it.

    Son desperately wanted a sunroof and got one with it. I told him “that adds $1,500 more dollars in cost for it, plus another $60 in WV sales tax.” I would have settled on same car without sunroof…but HE is the one who will be paying the monthly loan payments.

    More tomorrow….after wife and I deliver Meals on Wheels–so I will catch you all here tomorrow afternoon.

    BREAKING: President Obama and his National Security Adviser Susan Rice were so distraught after Trump won in 2016 they literally broke down and cried in front of White House staff, according to 1,100 hours of new audio and video compiled by Columbia University in cooperation with the Obama Foundation. After all they’d built, they feared their accomplishments were “at risk” of being torn down by a “con man” and a “clown.” Ergo, Trump had to be stopped?

  28. anz,

    My first new vehicle was a 1968 tan VW beetle. ($1,900)

    a year later I ran through a fence and over a bank in rainy, slippery road conditions and did $750 worth of damage to it. I was leaving in a week or so for Europe, so I traded the damaged Bug in for a 1970 blue VW beetle ($2,000). Paid cash for the difference except for a couple hundred loan I needed from my local bank. I asked my dad to pay the 1 month loan back since I would be in Europe and paid him back when I returned or authorized mim to take money from my checking acct once my last teacher paycheck was deposited.

    Had that car for 24 or so years, and then sold it for $380. (it was not running when I sold it and the guy came with his vehicle and towed if off with a large chain attached.

    Bergton VA is a little community just across the WV/VA line and close to Mathias WV where my wife grew up on her family farm. We went just about every year to the annual Bergton FAir. My mother in law won MANT blue ribbons for the produce she entered in the fair competition. Our two boys always looked forward to the Bergton Fair. It certainly IS an experience. These people have identical values to heir WV kin just across the border to the north in WV. Lots of folks on both sides were related.

    The song is GREAT. Not too many months ago, the area was hit by big forest fires that spawned a number of miles in both VA and WV that was pretty devastating.

    I think I now have some dust in my eyes…
